Diane Turner

Diane Turner, 62, of Palestine, IL, died at 1:45 a.m. on Sunday, June 10, 2018 at Heritage Health in Robinson, IL. She was born December 1, 1955 in Vigo County, IN, the daughter of James William “Bill” Jodry & Pauline (Earlywine) Jodry, both of whom preceded her in death. She was also preceded in death by her sister, Linda Smith; by her brothers, Billie Ray Jodry and John Jodry. She married Darrell Turner in Gatlinburg, TN, on October 30, 2004, and he survives. She is also survived by her daughters & sons-in-law, Lindsay & Waylon Whaley (Casey, IL), and Summer & Anthony Hallowell (Charleston, IL); by her step-son, Matt & Tara Turner; by her grandchildren, Maddux Whaley, Chase Whaley, Brooklynn Hallowell, Kaylee Hallowell, Jasmin Hallowell, Brayden Turner, and Braxtyn Turner; as well as several nieces and nephews. Diane was a graduate of Martinsville High School. She was a stay-at-home mom for many years before getting on with Charles Industries in Casey, IL, where she worked in Quality Control. Away from work, she was a homemaker, through and through. She loved working with home décor and was known to keep her landscaping in pristine condition. In recent years, she and Darrell enjoyed traveling, and visited Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, and Shipshewana, IN, among other destinations. More than anything, however, Diane loved spending time with her family. Her grandchildren were her life, and they brought so much joy to her life. Her kind, caring nature will never be forgotten.
